It's never a good sign for the tech sector when some of its biggest news involves lawyers, but that's been the situation so far this year.

The Recording Industry Association of America is leading the way again with a fresh round of lawsuits against 531 individuals accused of uploading music files to file-sharing services.

This time around, though, the RIAA isn't going it alone. Other companies -- most notably Microsoft and SCO Group -- are pulling pages from the RIAA's legal playbook and sending threatening letters to individuals they allege have infringed on their intellectual property rights.
